What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
This paper presents rapid photothermal actuation of light-addressable, arrayed hydrogel columns in a macroporous silicon membrane. Au nanorods are incorporated into thermo-responsive p-NIPAAm hydrogel to utilize surface plasmon-induced local heating by near-infrared light. By measuring optical transmission through the fabricated membrane structure with Au nanorod embedded hydrogel, we have demonstrated that photothermal actuation of hydrogel can be done in two-dimensional, pixel-like configuration with high spatial and temporal resolutions. Benefiting from the hydrogel volume confinement within micron-sized pores, we have achieved sub-second response time of hydrogel photothermal actuation and its repeatable photothermal actuation on highly localized illuminated area. Considering that each hydrogel column is confined within each pore and different wavelength of light can be used to induce photothermal actuation of hydrogel's deswelling characteristics by modifying physical dimensions of Au nanorods, it has a potential for optically-addressable, multiplexed drug release systems with rapid response time.
